GDT #58: Pens @ Flames
These last few seasons and the next few going forward are all about watching Sid ride off into the sunset, hopefully on his own terms. Wins are a bonus but not where my mind is at these days. It’s watching the best player of this generation (and the rest of the “core”) finish up. They’ve given me e...

Go young, KD, and please add shooters. I'd rather see 87 surrounded by a bunch of young guys who work their asses off than have to watch another season of whatever the f**k this is.

mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness
A young center is absolutely my top priority if I'm Dubas. If you upgrade there, you're in really good shape with Sid, Eller as your 3, and Acciari as your 4. Geno won't replace Jake's production on wing, but he might be close to a point per game player for another season or two if you move him ther...

Just how it goes sometimes. They finally score two power play goals, and they fall apart in their own end. This should not happen on home ice against a tired team down a defenseman.

Huge win. Even the most wide eyed optimist would acknowledge that any type of push towards making a run at the playoffs had to begin with a win tonight. Let's see if they can build off of this.

The power play is dysfunctional. Bad is not the word to describe it at this point. They go through stretches where it gives up more goals than it scores, and half the time it gives up better chances and more shots than it gets. Literally everything is wrong with it; there's nothing it does well as a...

I've been a huge Sullivan supporter for the duration of his time here, but I don't know what the objective was there in OT, or why this team looks lost 3 on 3 consistently.

Seriously. You could maybe cobble together one good line out of lines 2, 3, and 4.That lineup outside of the top line is vomit inducing.
That's what Sully is up against.

It's not a must win, but they have reached the point where they need to put a nice string of wins/loser points together. If they surrender two points to the Isles, either NJ or WAS will also gain two on them, and the climb becomes that much steeper.

mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness
I honestly don't think Rakell/Smith are worth much, meaning there's no impact player coming back. I agree completely, but they do have some value. This team needs guys who can shoot, and they're dead in the water if they don't acquire a few. If that can't happen, they might as well just be sellers ...

mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness
Rackell, Smith, and O'Connor all need to be traded, and a shooter needs to come back in return. At this point, I don't care what Dubas has to give up to make that happen, because we have like 2 or 3 years left with 87 and 58. I believe EK is fine, and will be even better if shooters are added. POJ c...

No they don't. Half the forwards aren't nhl players and half of the ones who are haven't done dick. Wake up This. The high ceiling stuff is nonsense. They are exactly who they are. I agree. The roster overall just isn't good. Letang and Petterson have played very well this season, but nobody is sco...

Stellar goaltending combined with a highly effective power play can carry a team with an otherwise flawed roster. In fact, with the conference being wide open this season and several of the top teams struggling, this team could have gone very far with a great power play. To me, that's the frustratin...

I completely agree that trading picks for stopgap rentals this season makes zero sense and will ultimately delay the rebuilding process. I would consider trading a couple of picks in exchange for youth - in the event that there are a couple of guys out there who are prospects that really haven't pan...
